Quinoa - "The Slimming Superfood"

[khriseeee]

Sorry for the late reply to the various questions.

Any herb will do - I use what I have on hand which is dried herb de provence. If I have fresh herbs - basil, thyme, etc I use that. Lemon pepper seasoning is a concoction you can buy from grocery - but if you don't have it, regular lemon juice + pepper is fine, though I would mix in the lemon juice at the end of cooking.

Japanese curry, I buy those roux cubes - you can find in most groceries too. Saute any veggies you like (I use squash, bell peppers, baguio beans, chickpeas, onion and garlic) and add in the roux cubes and a little water.

I found another great way to use quinoa for breakfast! I make breastfast egg muffins! Mix 6 eggs, grated cauliflower, cooked quinoa (cooked dry), seasonings, grated cheese and meat of choice (ham, bacon, sausage) and 1-2 spoons of almond flour. I then pour them into muffin pans and bake 20-25 minutes. I then toss them into a ziploc bag and put into the freezer - microwave for 1-1.5 minutes in the morning. It's a great gluten free breakfast meal or snack.

Love love Quinoa, sometimes you can buy it at Healthy Options for Sale! Sometimes there is also in Rustans  Supermarket and in S&R!!

How to cook it:
- Basically, you just have to boil it with chicken or pork stock then wait for a few minutes than it will have a better taste.

I LOVE THE TASTE!
